COMMUNICATION
The Clerk presented the following communication from his Honor,
the Mayor, returning with his veto the Business Advisory Commission
ordinance:
August 7, 1992
Honorable Board of Supervisors
Room 235 - City Hall
San Francisco, California 94102
Re: File No. 97-92-19 (Business Advisory Commission)
Honorable Board Members:
Regrettably, I am returning the attached ordinance with my veto.
Enhancing the business climate, creating new jobs and increasing
income is a major priority of my administration, and I was looking
forward to the creation of a broadly representative Business
Advisory Commission to help advance that goal.
Such a commission, in my view, should represent small and large
businesses both downtown and in the neighborhoods.
To be truly effective, however, such a commission must be fully
accountable and held totally responsible for its actions; and,
therefore, must report and be responsive to the Mayor's office. To
divide its membership between persons appointed by the Mayor and
others by the Board of Supervisors would dilute accountability,
divide responsibility and deny the commission the singleness of
purpose required for it to be truly effective.
As with Police, Fire, Planning and other important commissions, I
firmly believe in the principle that the buck stops with the Mayor.
I want a strong, cohesive Business Advisory Commission, and to
divide its membership would be bad public policy, bad management and
bad for the City.
It remains my hope that we can adopt an ordinance creating a
commission that would infuse new and expanding vitality into our
economy. To that end, I am transmitting herewith a new ordinance
which I hope the Board of Supervisors will consider as an amendment
of the whole.
This ordinance retains the basic provisions of the original Business
Advisory Commission Ordinance, however it creates the Commission
pursuant to Charter Section 2.101 which empowers this Commission in
the same manner as if created by charter amendment. Its mission
remains unchanged. The number and criteria for commission members
also remain unchanged. The substitute ordinance does, however,
provide the Business Advisory Commission with an executive director,
who shall act as department head and is authorized to carry out the
Commission's activities as directed by the Commission. It also
requires that a portion of the first appointed commissioners be
selected by the Mayor from nominees submitted by the Board of
Supervisors and designated business organizations.
-808-
The primary difference between this substitute ordinance and the
original is that the Business Advisory Commission will now be
endowed with the powers and authority of a commission like every
other City commission. I believe this enhances the role of the
Business Advisory Commission and gives the business community the
voice that it wants.
I very much want a close and collaborative working relationship with
the Board, and urge you to refer both my veto and this substitute
proposal to committee for public hearing.
Sincerely,
/s/ Frank M. Jordan
Mayor

File 88-92-1
The Mayor appeared and began his State of the City statement as
follows:
State of the City
October 19, 1992
"President Shelley, Members of this Honorable Board, and fellow
citizens of San Francisco. The City Charter requires that I report
to you on the State of the City.
I do so with mixed emotion - trepidation at the desperate state
of our national economy - and optimism that, San Franciscans, we can
overcome adversity.
-1027-
Monday, October 19, 1992
Mever since the Great Depression of the 1930 's has the City
faced a more grim and troubled fiscal crisis.
But, at the same time, we face the exciting adventure that, by
working together, we can maintain a high level of public service -
police on the streets, clinics and libraries open, parks in bloom
and public transit within easy reach of every San Franciscan.
To be sure, we will have to trim and cut back on some of the
more costly levels of service.
Tough decisions are inevitable - and, in cooperation and
consultation with your honorable Board - I am prepared to make them.'
The Mayor focused his speech on the budget and also discussed
efforts to help the homeless, provide health care for AIDS patients,
police on streets and keeping the Giants baseball team in San
Francisco. He pledged to keep a close working relationship with the
Board of Supervisors and closed his statement with a brief tribute
to Supervisor Harry Britt, who is leaving the Board after 14 years.

Requests Granted
There being no objection, the Board directed the Clerk to comply
with the following requests:
By Supervisor Hsieh, that City Attorney prepare ordinance setting
minimum safety standards for buildings the City proposes to purchase
or lease.
By Supervisor Kennedy, that City Attorney research the following
items to determine whether or not it would be legal and appropriate
to amend the Minority Business Enterprise/Women Business
Enterprise/Local Business Enterprise ordinance to require the
following: (1) Require the Human Rights Commission staff to provide
tracking data of all minority groups; (2) enforce all provisions of
the ordinance, such as, but not limited to, publication at regular
intervals of tracking data report and contract performance reports
for public review. Insert in the ordinance, a mechanism to
guarantee all ordinance provisions are monitored and implemented;
(3) levy one percent penalty for failure to pay within 45 days prime
contractors for work performed. Require that all subcontractors be
paid within 10 calendar days after prime contractors have been paid;
(4) establish department goals and enforce them. The current
ordinance does not establish any goals for each department so that
Human Rights Commission is unable to measure its compliance records
over a given period of time; (5) require a timely notification of
contract modifications which result in an increase of the initial
contract dollars by $50,000 or by ten percent, whichever is
greater. Also require these modified contracts to be publicly bid
out in compliance with the ordinance; (6) require Human Rights
Commission staff to collect and report all close out contract dollar
amounts; (7) requires Human Rights Commission to establish a
systematic process of review and analysis of contracts awarded to
different minority groups; (8) change the definition of Local
Business Enterprise so that only those businesses that pay the
City's payroll taxes by employing people in their San Francisco
offices or those businesses that procure at least five percent of
their procurement dollars from San Francisco Minority Business
Enterprises qualify as Local Business Enterprise.
By Supervisors Britt, Migden, Alioto, that letter be sent through
His Honor, the Mayor, to the Honorable Police Commission requesting
clarification of policy concerning use of police officers to issue
parking tickets near Stanyan Street.
By Supervisor Britt, that City Attorney be requested to review
whether a Municipal Railway employee's domestic partner is entitled
to benefits such as a fast pass and dental coverage. It appears
that denial of such benefits does not appear to be consistent with
the City's non-discrimination laws.

[Giants Candlestick Park Lease Amendment]
Ordinance approving a lease amendment entered into by the Recreation
and Park Commission and the San Francisco Giants, which reduces the
City's revenue from the agreement by approximately (($725,000))
$925,000 per year (amount will vary with attendance) through the
year 1997 and assigns the right to further revenues in the amount of
approximately $440,000 per year from the agreement to furnish
scoreboard to the Giants during the term of the lease. The City
further assumes the obligations for utilities and maintenance of the
playing field at a cost of approximately $250,000 per season; and
adding provision requiring the San Francisco Giants to provide
complimentary tickets and specifying effective date. (Supervisors
Alioto, Hsieh)
File 65-92-15, Ordinance No.
Supervisor Alioto, seconded by Supervisor Kennedy, moved to
amend Stadium Lease by adding new paragraph that reads as follows:
"If attendance at Giants games at Candlestick Park totals 12.5
million or more over the five years of the lease term, the
Giants shall, at the end of the fifth year, pay to the City rent
equal to twenty-five percent of the ticket revenue, calculated
on the average ticket price of the cumulative ticket sales, on
all tickets in excess of 12.5 million sold during the five year
period, to the extent that the Giants have a cumulative positive
1196-
Monday, December 14, 1992
net cash flow during such period, up to the amount of
concessions provided to the Giants by the City under the Fourth
Amendment to Stadium Lease and the related contractual
amendments approved by the City concurrently with that Fourth
Amendment. Cumulative net cash flow means the gross cash
revenues received by the Giants during the five year period less
that cash expenditures (operating expenses, interest and
principal payments on loans, and other capital payments or
expenditures) during said five year period. The Giants and the
City shall use their best efforts to develop the methodology for
calculating the extent of the concessions granted by the City.
If the Stadium Lease terminates prior to December 31, 1997, the
12.5 million attendance benchmark will be pro rated over the
number of baseball seasons that the Giants exhibited baseball
games at the Stadium. The Giants' cumulative net cash flow
shall be determined by certification by an independent auditor
appointed by the Giants and reasonably acceptable to the City."

Ayes: Supervisors Achtenberg, Alioto, Britt, Conroy, Gonzalez,
Hallinan, Hsieh, Kennedy, Maher, Migden, Shelley - 11.

employees shall be entitled to receive health benefits on the
same terms and conditions as provided to other spouses of Giants
employees, provided that if, after using good faith efforts, the
Giants are unable to obtain agreement by one or more providers
of health services to Giants* employees to so extend health
coverage to Domestic Partners, the Giants shall not be deemed in
breach of this covenant of this Stadium Lease as long as the
Giants provide Domestic Partners of their employees the option
for membership in one or more health plans on the same terms and
conditions as provided to other spouses of Giants employees.
The Giants shall use good faith efforts to have entities that
provide the Giants goods or services under contract to the
Giants agree in those contracts that the contractor will provide
Domestic Partners of its employees health benefits on the same
terms and conditions as provided to other spouses of its
employees. As used in this paragraph , two persons shall be
deemed "Domestic Partners" if the following conditions are met:
(1) both persons share the same principal place of residence;
(2) both persons share the same basic living expenses, are
financially interdependent and are jointly responsible for each
other's common welfare; (3) the persons are not related to each
other in a way that would bar marriage in California; (4) the
persons considered each other as live partners; and (5) neither
person has had a different Domestic Partner in the six months
preceding the date in which they first apply for eligibility for
health benefits under a plan made available in satisfaction of
the requirements of this paragraph ."

a. The Giants agree to use good faith efforts to provide
employment information and opportunities to economically
disadvantaged youths residing in the City and County of San
Francisco, and particularly in the Bayview - Hunters Point,

paragraph.
b. The Giants agree to participate in and contribute

Year Round Disadvantaged High Risk Youth Employment Program to
develop meaningful employment opportunities both in and around
the Giants and the Stadium and throughout the City.
c. The Giants recognize the importance of identifying and
developing young, academic and executive talent among the
economically disadvantaged youth of our community. Giants agree
to create, possibly through the Giants* already existing Giants
Fund, a minority student internship program. The goal of this
program would be to develop a pool of economically disadvantaged
youth interested in and committed to learning the ways in which
a professional baseball franchise and business operates.
-1198-
Monday, December 14, 1992
d. The Giants agree to set-aside not more than 250 seats on at

e. The Giants agree to form a Community Advisory Committee
consisting of thirteen members, representing each of the nine
Bay Area counties, and including four additional members
selected from a list of nominees forwarded to the Giants by the
San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Said Committee will
include, but not be limited to, residents representing the
diverse neighborhoods and ethnic groups in the City and County
of San Francisco. It shall be the function of this Committee to

under this agreement and to further advise the Giants on steps
they may take to enhance the quality of life of all citizens of
the City and County of San Francisco with particular emphasis
upon disadvantaged minority youth.

report to the Board of Supervisors specifying how they have

for each year hereunder the sum of one dollar ($1.00). Rent
shall be paid in advance on February 1 of each year,
(b) It is agreed that each calendar year the Giants shall make
available to charitable organizations, religious organizations,
youth programs, senior citizen programs, educational
institutions, and, subject to mutual agreement by the Giants and
the Mayor of the City, other organizations and individuals,
complimentary tickets whose face value in the aggregate equals
or exceeds $3,100,000 (Three Million One Hundred Thousand
Dollars). The Mayor shall recommend to the Giants organizations
and entities that shall be eligible to receive these tickets.
-1199-
Monday, December 14, 1992
The Giants shall select those organizations and entities that
shall receive the tickets from among the lists presented by the
Mayor and from other organizations and entities that apply for
the tickets. The Giants shall give to the Mayor of the City a
monthly report that details the distribution of the tickets
through the end of the preceding month. The tickets shall be
reserved seats located in upper reserved stands. The Giants, in
consultation with the Mayor, shall develop a distribution plan
for these tickets. The plan shall include provisions for
publicizing the availability of the tickets and how to apply for
them. The Giants will prepare an application form for the
tickets that will be available no later than April 1 of each
year. The Giants shall notify recipients reasonably in advance
of a game of the tickets that will be available to that
recipient. The Giants may require recipients of unused tickets
either to return the tickets to the Giants or to destroy them.
The tickets will be printed with a face value amount, but if
marked by the Giants as complimentary tickets for use in
satisfaction of the Giants' obligations under this paragraph,
the tickets will be deemed to be of no value for the purposes of
calculating the Giants' obligations, if any, to pay rent or
taxes to the City.
c. It is also agreed that each calendar year the Giants will
give the Commission 7,000 complimentary tickets to be used by
children, youth and seniors who are involved in Department
programs. Such complimentary tickets provided to the Commission
will be in the upper reserved sections. The games and locations
of these 7,000 tickets will be mutually agreed between the
General Manager and Giants. In addition, it is further agreed
that a reasonable number of complimentary tickets, not to exceed
twenty-four tickets per game, will be provided to the City on
request."

of Landlord the cost of the following utility services: natural
gas, electricity, sewer and water. The replacement of all
playing field light bulbs shall be made by the Landlord without
charge to the Tenant. The Landlord at its expense shall replace
all or such part of the playing field light standards as may be
or become necessary for the proper lighting of the playing field
and the Stadium, but if new and different light standards, other
